- Capitalism has alienated us from collective experience in shared public spaces. Blasting loud music is an act of protest. A violent rebellion that creates a shared experience by force. A momentary slap in the face to wake you up and remind you that we are all connected and these places inherently belong to all of us, for us to use together in loud, chaotic, contradictory ways — not to be parceled up, individualized, isolated, and reduced to sheer utility value.
- Haha windows go brrr
Edit: I guess I needed a /s
Ah yes, triggering autistic people to own the state
Almost every explanation given in this comment section boils down to “I’m a selfish prick who only cares about what I’m doing in that moment. Fuck the lot of ya”

The way I do it is to sound good in the car. If you can even hear it at all with the doors closed that’s by accident not design. I don’t go nuts with 4 dual coil 18s in a civic hatchback either though so I’m probably not the best one to answer. 🤷
You can definitely hear it. You can hear someone on a voice call or talk radio pretty clearly just walking near them.
But this is really asking about the cars you can hear coming down the block that sounds like they’re trying to work out sore muscles with their subwoofers.
Perhaps this will provide some clarity. https://youtu.be/QbjDFzEQOw8?si=C4Tn0vUTg8RL94ns

From Lullaby by Palahniuk:
"People who would never throw litter from their car will drive past you with their radio blaring. People who’d never blow cigar smoke at you in a crowded restaurant will bellow into their cell phone. They’ll shout at each other across the space of a dinner plate.
These people who would never spray herbicides or insecticides will fog the neighborhood with their stereo playing Scottish bagpipe music. Chinese opera. Country and western.
Outdoors, a bird singing is fine. Patsy Cline is not.
Outdoors, the din of traffic is bad enough. Adding Chopin’s Piano Concerto in E Minor is not making the situation any better.
You turn up your music to hide the noise. Other people turn up their music to hide yours. You turn up yours again. Everyone buys a bigger stereo system. This is the arms race of sound. You don’t win with a lot of treble.
This isn’t about quality. It’s about volume.
This isn’t about music. This is about winning.
You stomp the competition with the bass line. You rattle windows. You drop the melody line and shout the lyrics. You put in foul language and come down hard on each cussword.
You dominate.
This is really about power."
its not that deep I just like my music loud and to feel the bass
The above piece isn’t trying to give a deep reason for your actions: that would be ridiculous. You have proved that true with your post.
What the post is trying to convey is how other people feel about your selfish “it feel good to me (sic)” invading their space and awareness.
Be a better one person than this. Do you realize how much noise pollution negatively affects the most vulnerable in our communities the most?
I absolutely understand listening to music loud: it can sound better. I use headphones while at home that ensure I can listen as loud as I like, WITHOUT BOTHERING ANOTHER FUCKING BEING.

That was a cool book, been a long time

Disagree. Nobody wants to hear you shouting from the treetops about how you want sex, a-hole. Fuck birds.
a-hole
Fuck birds
How do you decide when to censor yourself or not?
Because the soul is quiet, and it hides the flounder.
So I don’t hear the increasingly worrying noises my car makes.
Found the Saab owner
Almost didn’t hear my tire pop 30 min ago because of music. Should have turned it louder instead of stopping because now I have to deal with it
Edit: in case anyone was wondering… Strut snapped and popped three tires trying to get to a shop. Called a tow to tow ten min down the road for 100$ :^) love that for me
I see we think alike. If you don’t notice a problem, there isn’t one.
You should install a fog machine. It could come in handy.
Two eye patches, ear plugs, might as well throw some ear plugs in your nose too.
This guy lemmy’in while driving what a champ
Because it’s a fun hobby to build systems capable of doing that and seeing just how loud you can get them, granted my group is the only one in town that only uses them deep in agricultural fields so we dont burst people’s eardrums. Regarding people that use them in cities, especially at night, i am absolutely with you.
Same reason why you would fire a gun in confined space. It makes deaf fasters, so you don’t have to listen to the shit music you are forced to listen due to peer pressure.
They have speakers that point outside the window… Yeah make sense with that.
“hey look free speakers!”
Love my loud music while zipping down a highway at 100+. Zoom, zoom.
Same reason children cry, they want attention.
Fun fact, loud bass sounds louder outside a car than inside. They’re literally trying to blow out their own ears but missing.
I like to feel the vibrations and a car is the most efficient space to have that environment in.
